Awesome place to stay in Pagosa Springs
We rode out bikes to Pagosa Springs for hot springs and riding the million dollar hwh. The drift was awesome. New, clean. Code to get in was sent ontime. Very comfortable. Outside is a gas firepit and they provide bicycles. Price was reasonable. There are bunk beds also for kids. This gets a 10 star review. Walking distance to hot springs. Highly recomended.

The Drift was a rare hotel find. It was better than the pictures could have described. The place is kept up very well like its brand new. The grounds are clean and nicely landscaped. We had a few separate rooms or units and the picnic area was the perfect place for the family to sit together and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We stayed for the 4th of July, and it was like the fire pit area was setup just for that. Everyone staying there had a perfect view of the fireworks. We loved the units, they were fully stocked with everything we needed and the we loved the design touches. Having the bikes available was a great touch as well with the river bike path right next to the hotel. Of all the places to stay that we saw while in Pagosa Springs, we were lucky enough to have picked this place - it was just the best. We would love to go back!

I really enjoy these individual unit design for our stays. The Drift were amongst the nicest we’ve stayed at in our travels. The street construction seems to be going on everywhere in Colorado but when that is complete The Drift will be an A destination.

The Drift is perfectly located in the middle of town and you are close to restaurants and shopping. The property is new and it is awesome. You have your own apartment and the facility is clean and well maintained. You have a grill you can cook on and an outdoor fire pit. You also have bicycles on the property you can use. I highly recommend The Drift and I will be staying there in November.

We loved the drift! Such a great experience the property was super clean. The rooms were a great size, very clean, shower was awesome, comfy bed, and a kitchen with a sink and dishes. Courtyard was great and staff was amazing. Quick walk to root house coffee which was amazing and we got a buy one get one free coffee for staying here! Seriously best place to stay.
